Toilets of the World

This hugely entertaining tour of toilets around the globe is a source of endless fascination and amusement. From a high-tech cubicle that rises out of the ground in central London to a rickety hut on stilts over the Caribbean, from a toilet in Bolivia carved out of a giant cactus to a solid gold WC in Hong Kong, Toilets of the World provides an irresistible journey around washrooms worldwide. Here, at last, is the ultimate book for the smallest room in your home. Book jacket.

Now available in paperback, this amusing but highly informative photographic journey reveals the idiosyncrasy and inventiveness that characterize the construction of the humble toilet around the globe. Along the way, the reader encounters every possible permutation, from the traditional English thunderbox to the Swazi thatched beehive hut, and discovers the fascinating cultural and historical differences that can make our travels to other countries so enjoyable.
